-object memory-backend-ram,size=4G,id=m0 \ -numa node,memdev=m0 \ -drive file=windows10.qcow2,if=virtio,aio=native,cache.direct=on

If you want, I can:

When mapping the QCOW2 image to your VM configuration file (XML or Proxmox hardware settings), use these specific caching options: Windows 10.qcow2

qemu-img create -f qcow2 -o preallocation=metadata windows10.qcow2 80G id=m0 \ -numa node

If you have QEMU installed, you can create a blank disk and install Windows 10 from an ISO: qemu-img create -f qcow2 windows_10.qcow2 50G Use code with caution. memdev=m0 \ -drive file=windows10.qcow2
